Sir Peter Blake and Annie Lennox

Simon talks to Pop Artist Sir Peter Blake about the search for Radio 2's first ever Artist in Residence. And Annie Lennox discusses An Evening of Nostalgia - her new concert DVD.

Simon talks to renowned Pop Artist Sir Peter Blake about the search for Radio 2's first ever Artist in Residence in association with The Space. This is an amazing opportunity for a working artist to gain exposure to the Radio 2 audience - who currently number over 15 million a week. The plan is to offer a working artist a golden pass to every Radio 2 event over the next 12 months. All they have to do in return is to create a minimum of 4 artistic responses across the year. The winner will be decided by a panel including Sir Peter, best known for designing the iconic album sleeve for The Beatles' "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band".

Annie Lennox also joins Simon to discuss An Evening of Nostalgia - her new concert DVD.

There's a brand new Confession for the Caring Collective, Rebecca's on the Money, Matt has all the Sport and Bobbie keeps us up to date with the latest Travel News.
